Question: The degree of freedom of a molecule of a triatomic gas is
Options:
A) 2
B) 4
C) 6
D) 8
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
No. of degree of freedom $=3 K-N$
Where K is no. of atom and N is the number of relations between atoms.
For triatomic gas, $K=3, N={ }^3 C_2=3$
No. of degree of freedom $=3(3)-3=6$
